1 gcc allows to build 'empty' shared libraries (with no sources):

     2 

     3 $ gcc -shared -o a.so -lz

     4 

     5 Sun CC does not have this ability. Samba guys tried to workaround it by

     6 http://git.samba.org/?p=anatoliy/anatoliy.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=65743f932b511db009655847e77288c95c0aa525

     7 

     8 The workaround adds - to the end of the command line. That does not seem to

     9 work too. So Instead of that I am creating small C source file which will be

    10 used as a base of the 'empty' libraries.
